Groupe Renault

Groupe Renault, headquartered in France and operating in the sale, maintenance, and repair of motor vehicles, parts, and accessories, has actively disclosed its carbon emissions and committed to ambitious climate targets.

For 2025, Groupe Renault's total Scope 1 emissions are approximately 379.1 million kg CO2e, and its total Scope 2 market-based emissions are around 141.7 million kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions for 2025 are approximately 106.83 billion kg CO2e. Key contributors to Scope 3 emissions include the use of sold products (approximately 80.35 billion kg CO2e) and purchased goods and services (approximately 20.00 billion kg CO2e).

In 2024, the company reported approximately 406.44 million kg CO2e for Scope 1 emissions and about 289.75 million kg CO2e for Scope 2 market-based emissions. Scope 3 emissions for 2024 were approximately 107.41 billion kg CO2e, with the use of sold products accounting for about 83.89 billion kg CO2e and purchased goods and services for approximately 16.31 billion kg CO2e.

Looking back to 2022, Groupe Renault's Scope 1 emissions were approximately 423.07 million kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were around 183.20 million kg CO2e. The total Scope 3 emissions for 2022 were approximately 56.45 billion kg CO2e, primarily driven by the use of sold products (around 45.94 billion kg CO2e) and purchased goods and services (about 9.64 billion kg CO2e). The total disclosed emissions for 2022 were approximately 57.06 billion kg CO2e.

Groupe Renault has set several climate commitments and targets. The company aims to achieve net-zero carbon in Europe by 2040 and worldwide by 2050 across all scopes, aligning with the Paris Agreement. They also target carbon neutrality in production for Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2025.

Near-term targets include a significant reduction of 80% in Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions from its sites between 2019 and 2030. More specifically, the company commits to reducing absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions by 71.71% by 2035 from a 2019 base year, and absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 57.01% within the same timeframe. Renault Group also aims to reduce Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions by 60% per car produced by 2030 from a 2012 base year, and Scope 3 GHG emissions from the use of sold products by 41% per vehicle kilometre by 2030 from a 2010 base year.

Long-term goals include reducing absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions by 90.0% by 2050 from a 2019 base year, with a similar 90.0% reduction target for absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions within the same timeframe, leading to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across the value chain by 2050. These targets are validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).
